Answer

Local testing

Simple way

• push your file to github and look it up there. github renders your markdown file and should display a table above the main text. If that's the case it is valid, most probably :)

Advanced way

• install ruby and gem as prerequsites
• install jekyll: sudo gem install jekyll bundler
• checkout projects software git checkout https://github.com/freifunk/projects
• delete contents of the original software
  • rm projects/_projects
  • rm projects/_faq
• copy our own contents  * cp collections/_projects projects/_projects
  • cp collections/_faq projects/_faq
• run jekyll and bundler
  • cd projects
  • bundle install
  • bundle exec jekyll serve

Deployment in Production

• install ansible
• run ansible-playbook deploy_coala-projects.yml -i path-to-your-inventory --limit "the server to deploy to" --extra-vars "install_user=your-install-user install_path=/path/to/install"
